My Job Search Struggles

Image
  Welcome back to this precious space. Today, I would be sharing something reeeeeeeeaaally PERSONAL. It's about my job search struggles!!! You might be wondering what's so special about that. It's special to me because all through my life so far, I have never had the "waiting period". Let me give a brief history so you will get the picture: - Basic Education ( Ended in 2006) - Secondary Education (2006 - July, 2012) - BSc ( August, 2012 - July, 2016) - National Youth Service Corps ( November, 2016 - October, 2017) - MSc ( February, 2018 - July, 2020)  Official ceremony April, 2021 (because COVID) In my head, I had paid my dues (in terms of being serious in school and all that good stuff) and so jobs should be running after me.

This adventure cost almost an entire match box🤕. I had seen a number of people set the charcoal stove so my eyes registered the process as an easy deal.

Julian’s upbringing was such a special one. One of the exciting times for her was Christmas because of the variety of food she had access to. Fried rice also came as a Christmas menu. It was only eaten during Christmas. For years now, Julian had always wondered what gave the rice such a pleasant outlook. As she grew older, cooking and kitchen affairs became a delight to her. She would try her hands on a number of dishes and recipes. With all that came praises from tasters. This obviously gave her a massive boost in her kitchen experiments. It was now that time of the year when the Almighty fried rice would be cooked. However, this time was different. She had grown to the point where she was saddled with the responsibility of making that wonder meal. Nervous as she was, she embraced the technological advantage of YouTube. Communication service providers and food content creators would have given her a huge hug that day owing the amount of data used during the “Nigerian Fried Rice Re...
